John Stamos and Lori Loughlin played married couple Jesse and Becky on Full House, but as it turns out sparks nearly flew between the two off-screen as well.

In his new memoir, If You Would Have Told Me, Stamos, 60, describes how he almost started dating his co-star out when they both became 'single at the same time' during the mid-1990s, according to Us Weekly.

'She's my Sandra Dee from Grease, the good girl with a kind heart who always makes me feel upbeat when I'm around her,' Stamos said of his co-star.

'She's one of the few women I have spent day after day with and still always look forward to seeing her again. I know what makes her laugh, we get each other and we have the sort of true friendship that's supposed to be the foundation of a great, lasting relationship.
